Tim van Beeck

I am a first year PhD student supervised by Christoph Lehrenfeld and a member of the CRC 1456. My research is currently focussed the development and analysis of numerical methods for Galbrun's equation, a PDE that models the propagation of waves in the sun. Previously, I wrote my Master's thesis on discontinuous Galerkin discretizations for Galbrun's equation and my Bachelor’s Thesis on a DG discretization for a degenerate diffusion equation in the working group. I have also contributed to a project on unfitted mixed finite element methods.
